Re: Magic Realism

I mean, the most famous examples of the genre is of course Gabriel Garcia Marquez's body of work.

It has ties to fantasy, and its a kinda hard to describe genre, but where fantasy will have a whole world that is different, magic realism is for the most part a realistic depiction of our world, except for just a few elements of fantasy, usually meant to highlight something within the story. Or at least thats how I understand.

Yeah, I was going to come in with GGM as well. Like in Chronicle of a Death Foretold when the bullet that kills the guy goes through like an entire house before it hits him - it's totally fantastical but never really commented on. (Also, the Men in Blazers described Luis Suarez's statement after he bit a player for the third time as the best magical realism to come out of South America since GGM died, which is actually kind of a good example as well.)
